As a result of the analysis, it has been found that in general, the preferred job choice criteria of the decision makers (the individuals who participated in the survey) is respectively as follows; the respectability level of the business in the society, wage level, and flexible working time opportunity. Thus, these criteria have been considered more important when compared with other criteria.
